Scaling large models requires optimization strategies that ensure rapid convergence grounded in stability. Maximal Update Parametrization ($\boldsymbol{\mu}$P) provides a theoretical safeguard for width-invariant $\Theta(1)$ activation control, whereas emerging optimizers like Muon are only "half-al…
Current Zero-Shot Temporal Action Localization (ZSTAL) methods, whether training-based or training-free ones, still predominantly rely on a single, unified query to localize an entire action. This unified representation is fundamentally ill-suited for complex real-world activities, as it fails to ca
Zero-Shot Temporal Action Localization (ZS-TAL) aims to classify and localize actions in untrimmed videos that are unseen during training. Existing training-based ZS-TAL methods typically rely on fine-tuning models on large-scale annotated training data. This can be impractical in real-world applica
Clustering with k-means is well-established and efficient, but often struggles with complex data distributions because the clustering performance hinges on how well the centroids capture the data distribution, and conventional k-means usually fails to produce representative centroids under such cond
Zero-shot Natural Language Video Localization (NLVL) aims to automatically generate moments and corresponding pseudo queries from raw videos for the training of the localization model without any manual annotations. Existing approaches typically produce pseudo queries as simple words, which overlook…
The integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) with external sources is becoming increasingly common, with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) being a prominent example. However, this integration introduces vulnerabilities of Indirect Prompt Injection (IPI) attacks, where hidden instructions embed
The rapid evolution of deep learning and large language models has led to an exponential growth in the demand for training data, prompting the development of Dataset Distillation methods to address the challenges of managing large datasets. Among these, Matching Training Trajectories (MTT) has been…
Internet of Things (IoT) devices possess valuable yet private multimodal data, calling for a decentralized machine learning scheme. Though several multimodal federated learning (MFL) methods have been proposed, most of them merely overlook the system heterogeneity across IoT devices, resulting in th…
Benefiting from instrumental global dependency modeling of self-attention (SA), transformer-based approaches have become the pivotal choices for numerous downstream visual reasoning tasks, such as visual question answering (VQA) and referring expression comprehension (REC). However, some studies hav…
In this work, we focus on the challenging problem of Label Enhancement (LE), which aims to exactly recover label distributions from logical labels, and present a novel Label Information Bottleneck (LIB) method for LE. For the recovery process of label distributions, the label irrelevant information…
